Hey Tony!
first of all many thanks for this amazing blog and for your help! I'm not new to hackintoshes but man! you opened a brand new world to me!!
I'm putting together a new machine which I will mainly use for audio (Logic and Cubase) and am trying to decide among the various Gigabyte P55 models listed in your DSDT database... ok I know I'm not the only one!
Since I plan to OC it and I already have the case I'd rather stay with an ATX form factor (only reason not to go for your same board!!) and possibly go for an P55A model in the hope that USB 3.0 and Sata III will be supported by Apple one of these days.
I've read MANY of the threads here and am somehow confused on what would be the best choice (for example the P55A UD6 thread seems to imply that FW doesn't work whilst it does on your P55M UD2).
So... I'd greatly appreciate an advice from you and from all of you in order to go and get a P55A that can lead to the best possible benchmark and is solid at least with Firewire (will need it with my RME audio card), eSata and 1Gbit LAN.
Should you rather reccommend a normal ATX P55 (without USB 3.0 etc) then please let me know.
My 2 cents... Maybe it would be also cool/useful to open a new thread where each of us may report his own configuration together with the relevant Geekbench results?
Many thanks in advance to anyone who's willing to share an advice for my first P55 box!
Ciao,
Ricky
